I was a 11.1% ROI over my first 1K $55's this year. This month I have played 251 and lost $455 for a negative ROI of 3.30. I think my problem is that I play bad though.

Why? Haven't you seen enough of them to be immune by now?

Based on those numbers I'd say there's a good chance you're a winning player at that level which doesn't make you a bad player at all. Everyone can improve though.

Beef-
Have you ever posted an "I'm running good" post?

P.S.
Have I mentioned that I have had one losing week since moving to the $55s?

I beat the 55s for 12%

No offense, but I don't consider a 12% SNG ROI to be "beating" anything. Randomly, you should be ITM 30% of the time. To my mind, the threshhold of "beating" them is a 50% increase over the average, or 45% ITM. At 45% ITM spread evenly over the 3 payout spots (assuming a 10-handed table), your ROI should be 36%.

So the only one beating the game is Stanzee? Wow! Klingon math can be so enlightening.
